To determine which element of art was used to create emphasis on the girl in the image, we should consider how each option can affect the viewer's focus:

  • Texture: This can draw attention, but it typically enhances the overall feel rather than spotlighting one element.

  • Color: Bright or contrasting colors can effectively draw the viewer's eye directly to the subject, making it a strong candidate for emphasis.

  • Negative Space: The space surrounding the girl can create emphasis by isolating her, allowing her to stand out against the background.

  • Curved Lines: These can guide the viewer’s eye towards the girl and create a sense of movement.

Given these explanations, if the girl is standing out vividly against a less saturated background or if she is the only colorful element in the image, color would be a very likely answer. However, if she's surrounded by a lot of empty space that highlights her figure, negative space would be appropriate.

Without seeing the image, I would suggest color as the most common and effective element to create emphasis.
